Jack Black, Gary Cole, and DC Pierson Get Political in the New Stephen Malkmus Video

Here’s the new video for “Senator,” the latest single from Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks’ Mirror Traffic. Directed by The Daily Show’s Scott Jacobson, it stars Jack Black as a cattle-prod-toting senator running for reelection, Gary Cole as his cowboy-hat-sporting second in command, and Derrick’s DC Pierson as a young campaign volunteer just looking to have a good time. Shit gets a little dark for our dear senator, but doesn’t it always?
